1. Change your angle depending on what you are photographing. I like to use the example of photographing kids, pets or smaller items. If you are photographing a group of little kids playing in the sandbox you often see the photographer shoot images form a standing position. These images tend to look more like snap shots as this higher angle does not add interest to the images. I like to suggest trying a much lower angle when photographing kids. They are small but when you get down on their angle and take the pictures they look less like snap shots and more like moments. Just doing something that simple as changing your angle will make the kids fill the frame and stand out more. When they stand out more the impact that is made in the images is much stronger. The same holds true when you are shooting sports. Say a soccer player is running down the field and your standing shooting images. The player does not come across as strong or impressive in your images because your standing up. If you take on that low angle where you are shooting up to the players they take on this larger than life look. They stand out more, they have more impact and 9 out of 10 times the images will pop. 2. Watch out for mergers in the background A merger in the background would be a branch coming out of the back of someones head. Or it could be anything distracting that is behind the subject in the frame. If I am looking through my viewfinder and I see behind the subjects head a big poll I know that that could mess with the final image. So keep your eyes open for whats gong on in the background. 3. Don't be afraid to move to find the image opposed to asking the subject to move. This goes hand and hand with number 2. Say your subject has something distracting in the background should you both asking your subject to move or should you slightly move your own angle? I like to first move my own angle to see if I can get rid of the distraction before I ask the subject to move. This way your not bothering your subject, you are doing what you need to do in order to make sure they have the best image. The less you have to move your subject the more comfortable they will end up being. 4. Make sure to check the edges of the view finder. Many times when I am photographing I place my subject where they should be but I spend the rest of the time checking the edges of the frame. What I am looking for are things like exit signs in the background or random out of place objects that will take away from the subject. Exit signs are a major issue and your solution to not having exit signs in your images should not be to edit them out later in photo shop. Instead of shooting a group shot in front of the exit notice the sign and than rotate the people if you can not change your angle to block the sign. I know I said above don't always have your subject move but in the case of an exit sign over everyones head just as them to rotate as you do not want to get the sign in there. Are there things in the background that could actually make your image stronger. Is there a nice out of focus area that would lead you back to the subject or accentuate the subject. It does work both ways, things in the background could make your image stronger or take away from its appeal. 5. Get closer This is something I needed to learn, get closer to your subject, fill the frame even when you are shooting ultra wide angles.
